(Nasdaq: RVNC), a biotechnology company pioneering new innovations in neuromodulators for aesthetic and therapeutic indications, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and provided a corporate update.

Second Quarter 2019 and Subsequent Highlights/Updates

BLA On Track for Fall Submission. Revance remains confident in a Fall submission for its Biologics License Application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection (DAXI) for the treatment of glabellar lines.

Enrollment Progressing for Phase 2 Trials in “Upper Face” Expansion Indications. In July, Revance completed enrollment in its Phase 2 clinical trial of DAXI for forehead lines. Enrollment for the company’s Phase 2 trial of DAXI in lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet) is expected to be completed shortly. Topline results for both are expected in the first half of 2020.

Appointed Jill Beraud to Board of Directors. In June, Revance announced that Ms. Beraud joined Revance’s board of directors. Ms. Beraud brings more than 25 years’ experience building luxury, fashion, beauty, and consumer brands. She will also chair a new Revance Brand Strategy Committee.

Added Chris Nolet to Board of Directors. In July, the company announced that Chris Nolet joined Revance’s board of directors. Mr. Nolet brings deep experience as a long-time audit partner and business advisor to the life sciences industry. He will also assume the role of Chair of Revance’s Audit Committee.

Dan Browne, President and Chief Executive Officer at Revance comments: “We made excellent progress in the second quarter, advancing our regulatory submission for DAXI, and we remain on track to complete a compelling BLA submission for the treatment of glabellar lines in the Fall of 2019. To raise physician awareness of DAXI, pre-launch, I’m excited to announce that Revance’s SAKURA trial results have been accepted for publication in the upcoming issues of both the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, elevating the significance of our DAXI clinical outcomes. We continue to make headway with our clinical development pipeline for DAXI in both aesthetic and therapeutic expansion indications. We believe we have positioned Revance for a number of significant value-creating milestones through year end and in 2020.”

Financial Highlights

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of June 30, 2019 were $241.9 million.

Revenue – There was no revenue recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2018. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $0.3 million compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2018. The revenue recognized represents the portion of revenue earned from the $25 million upfront payment from Mylan under the biosimilar collaboration and license agreement.

Research and development expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were $25.5 million and $49.5 million compared to $22.9 million and $45.1 million for the same periods in 2018, respectively. The change in research and development expenses is primarily due to the initiation and continuation of clinical trials and studies for multiple therapeutic and aesthetic indications and pre-BLA filing activities for DAXI for the treatment of glabellar lines.

General and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were $13.6 million and $26.5 million compared to $12.7 million and $26.4 million for the same periods in 2018, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to increased costs related to personnel and infrastructure build-out.

Total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were $39.1 million and $76.0 million compared to $35.6 million and $71.5 million for the same periods in 2018, respectively. Stock-based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $4.4 million and $8.6 million, respectively. When excluding depreciation and stock-based compensation, total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were $33.9 million and $66.0 million, respectively.

Net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $37.4 million and $72.7 million compared to $34.1 million and $69.1 million for the same periods in 2018, respectively.

Near-Term Milestone Expectations

Aesthetics:

Submission of a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the FDA for DAXI for the treatment of glabellar (frown) lines in the Fall of 2019.
Topline results from Phase 2 study of DAXI in forehead lines expected in 1H 2020.
Topline results from Phase 2 study of DAXI in lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet) expected in 1H 2020

Therapeutics:

Completion of patient enrollment in Phase 2 plantar fasciitis study expected in 4Q 2019.
Completion of patient enrollment in Phase 3 cervical dystonia study in 4Q 2019.
Completion of patient enrollment in Phase 2 upper limb spasticity study expected in 1H 2020.

2019 Financial Outlook

Revance reiterates its financial guidance provided in February 2019. Revance expects 2019 GAAP operating expense to be in the range of $173 to $185 million and non-GAAP operating expense, which excludes depreciation and stock-based compensation costs, to be in the range of $148 to $158 million as driven by increased research and development expenditures and launch preparation activities. With five clinical programs and preparations to file the BLA underway, Revance anticipates 2019 non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expense to be $93 to $100 million. With the successful capital infusion through partnering agreements in 2018 and an equity raise in January, management feels the company has adequate cash reserves to fund its current operations through 2020.
